One Piece is infamous for fake out death scenes. Is Vegapunk's heart rate flat lining in 1108 one of these fake outs or will Oda keep him dead.
I will consider a fake out death to be something along the lines of "his heart stopped but was started up again", "his body was destroyed but his consciousness transfered to a satellite", or "his consciousness survived via Punk Records."
I will not consider a fake out death to be the Stella dying but a satellite such as Lilith surviving.
Due to the nature of the fakeouts, I will wait till I feel like it is safe to resolve NO. This will be at minimum a few chapters into the next arc but could be as much as a year depending on if there is evidence or suspicion for a fake out.
Will resolve YES if one of the conditions listed above or something along the lines occurs.
Resolves based on TCB SCANS releases. If they cease publishing than I will refer to the official Viz translation.
@FictionalLuvus read the description. I specified the Stella. We haven't seen anything showing that his personality still survives. His memories being present isn't adequate as that was already the case. As I said early, I'm looking for continuity of consciousness and personality.
@ErrorProne Ahh I see however with how it has currently been laid out I extremely doubt that Stella being alive in side the amalgam or otherwise to be highly doubtful.
Full summary for the latest chapter is out by pewpiece
I will consider a fake out death to be something along the lines of "his heart stopped but was started up again", "his body was destroyed but his consciousness transfered to a satellite", or "his consciousness survived via Punk Records."
My understanding of that was that as long as something like punk records still had his consciousness it would be a fake out via this market. I understand Lilith alone wouldn't count but she did say they are all still alive which I guess could count for something but let's see.
